You have to memorize the words above
the line.You will see them over and
over and you need to recognize them quickly when you see them.

Now a vowel I didn’t talk about
before.It’s under the alef of elohim,
“Gd.”Part of it looks like a shva and
the other part like a segol.There are three vowels like this; ignore the shva part and go by
the other part when you pronounce it.So
that’s why you say this word elohim.
